Ramazan Samadov, adviser to the AFFA general secretary, has shared a post about the Azerbaijan national team’s victory over Liechtenstein, which secured top spot in the group.
Fanat.az reports that the AFFA official shared his thoughts on social media:
“Some will say this is an important win because it took us to the top of the group. Others will say it is not that significant because it did not come against particularly strong opposition.
But let me tell you what I think: these are exactly the kind of wins our national team needs. Because these victories restore our players’ confidence and self-belief.
Football is a very emotional and psychological game. Confidence can be lost in a second, but regaining and rebuilding it is a long and difficult process. That is why it is wrong to judge the value of wins like these solely by the scoreline or the strength of the opposition. All hail our national team!”
As a reminder, the Azerbaijan national team beat Liechtenstein 1-0 away in the UEFA Nations League thanks to Mahir Emreli’s 26th-minute goal, finishing top of the group with 8 points and earning promotion to League C.
